Product catalog summary
Product Description: The Model 8527 is a high-precision compression load cell designed for reference measurement chains requiring highly precise results. It features very high production quality and extremely low non-linearity of 0.035% F.S., making it suitable for comparative measurements and calibration tasks. It can handle dynamic stress up to 100% of the full scale value, making it ideal for rapid signal changes with high amplitude.
Specifications: The load cell has a domed load button for applying compressive load, with an internal elastic membrane and strain gages that generate a proportional output signal. It is crucial to apply force axially and centrically for optimal results. The mounting surface should be hardened (60 HRC) and resistant to bending.
Highlights: Measuring ranges from 0 to 500 N up to 100 kN, non-linearity of 0.035% F.S., and suitability for dynamic measurements. Options include factory calibration certificates (WKS) or DAkkS calibration, and burster TEDS.
Applications: Suitable for reference measurements, calibration facilities, test benches, and all areas of mechanical engineering.
Technical Data: The load cell offers various measuring ranges calibrated in N and kN, with accuracy parameters such as relative non-linearity ≤ ±0.035% F.S., characteristic curve deviation, and temperature effects on zero output and nominal sensitivity. It operates in a nominal temperature range of +15°C to +70°C and an operating range of -30°C to +80°C. The protection class is IP65.
Installation: Requires mounting on a hardened, flat, polished, or lapped base. Uses specific mounting screws and tightening torque.
Electrical Termination: Utilizes a strain-gage Wheatstone bridge, with output voltage dependent on sensor supply voltage. Suitable instrumentation amplifiers and process instruments are available on the manufacturer's website.
Calibration: Includes a standard factory calibration certificate with 11 measurement points. DAkkS calibration certificates are available, providing 21 measurement points under various conditions.
Accessories: Includes connectors and mobile measuring devices compatible with various burster units.
Additional Information: Brochures, product videos, and CAD data are available for download on the manufacturer's website.

Delivery: ex stock | Warranty: 24 months burster High Precision Compression Load Cell ■ Measuring ranges from 0 ... 500 N to 0 ... 100 kN ■ Highest manufacturing quality ■ Also suitable for dynamic measurements ■ WKS (Factory Calibration Certificate) or DAkkS (German Accreditation Body) calibration ■ All areas of mechanical engineering The model 8527 high-precision compression load cell is the ideal load cell for reference measurement chains where highly precise measurement results are required. Its very high production quality and extremely low non-linearity of just 0.035 % F.S. make it a dependable choice for comparative measurements and calibration tasks Designed for a dynamic stress of up to 100 % of the full scale value, the model 8527 load cell is also suitable for situations where a rapid signal change with high amplitude occurs and has to be measured. The model 8527 high-precision compression load cell has a domed load button on top, onto which the compressive load being measured is applied. Inside the load cell is an elastic membrane, on which strain gages generate a resistance change in the measuring bridge and an output signal proportional to the load. For the best possible measurement results, the force should be applied axially and centrically to the load button. The mounting surface should ideally be hardened (60 HRC) and should not bend under the applied load. burster Sensors and Process Instruments - Technical changes reserved.
